An unbeaten two-division Oktagon champion makes her UFC debut at flyweight against a Brazilian who has lost her last two and not fought in a year.
This bout was announced at bantamweight and is now listed at 125lb, which changes it more than a ten-pound line usually does: Tainara Lisboa has fought her whole UFC career at 135, and she takes this one after roughly a year away. Lucia Szabova is the reason the UFC went looking in Europe rather than on the regional American circuit. The Slovak arrives unbeaten β 10-0 by Tapology's count, 12-0 oβ¦
Szabova is a UFC debutant, so she carries no composite rating, no quality-of-victory score and no chin rating in this database β those figures do not exist until she fights here. What is on record elsewhere: unbeaten in ten professional fights, five by submission and three by knockout, simultaneous Oktagon MMA titles at flyweight and bantamweight, and a bantamweight title defence over Lucie Pudilova on 1 August 2026. She is 28 and from Bratislava.
Lisboa (7-4, 2-2 UFC) has lost her last two, both by stoppage β Melissa Croden by third-round TKO in October 2025 and Luana Santos by second-round submission in May 2025 β and has not fought since. She is 35. Composite 43.9, momentum 45.6, quality-of-victory 35.0, chin 66.0, finish rate 0.50. Her UFC wins are a decision over Ravena Oliveira and a submission of Jessica-Rose Clark, both in 2023.
The move to Women's Flyweight β Lisboa's UFC record is entirely at bantamweight, and this is a cut she has not made here before
Lisboa's twelve months out of competition at 35, off two straight stoppage defeats
Two submission finishers meeting β Szabova has five, Lisboa's 5.00 submission score is her best asset
Lisboa's 1.00 striking score against a debutant with three career knockouts
Whether Oktagon-level opposition translates: Szabova's quality-of-victory is unmeasured, not high
Lisboa's 66.0 chin, already broken once
Szabova has no UFC data whatsoever; the pick rests on Lisboa's decline rather than on anything measured about the debutant
Debut nerves and the Apex are a real tax on European signings, and Lisboa has been in the building before
Lisboa's grappling numbers are her strongest and are the one part of her game that does not depend on speed or timing returning after a year off
